What is the primary difference between LoRa and LoRaWAN?

The correct answer is A. LoRa is the modulation method and LoRaWAN implements the higher network layers. LoRa: Refers to the physical layer chirp spread spectrum (CSS) modulation, enabling long-range, low- power communication. LoRaWAN: An open MAC layer protocol that builds on LoRa, defining network architecture, device management, and data routing for large-scale LoRa networks.
